Let your poem today be a peephole into the complexity and perplexity of the human shadow, your own perhaps. Let it somehow focus on the spiritual process of incorporating your own shadow-side or learning to show compassion for blatant displays of shadow in others.

How to be an elderly woman:

Jeanne

How to Be Old
It is easy to be young. (Everybody is,
at first.) It is not easy
to be old. It takes time.
Youth is given; age is achieved.
One must work a magic to mix with time
in order to become old.
Youth is given. One must put it away
like a doll in a closet,
take it out and play with it only
on holidays. One must have many dresses
and dress the doll impeccably
(but not to show the doll, to keep it hidden).
It is necessary to adore the doll,
to remember it in the dark on the ordinary
days, and every day congratulate
one’s aging face in the mirror.
In time one will be very old.
In time, one’s life will be accomplished.
And in time, in time, the doll—
like new, though ancient— will be found.

the RESURRECTION:

40a4e51f82c9ee6c5ec8dd5f40512257

 

The shattered hearts of the apostles were broken when Jesus died.

But when Jesus blessed the bread, they recognized Him.

The wisdom walk with Jesus is every minute of Jesus’s new state.

Repentance and forgiveness is proclaimed,

What are we walking toward? The Resurrection!

We touch His wounds. They are filled with promise!

The new reality is love and a renewed self.

All things in Christ are the Resurrection!

All sinners hope for R E S U R R E C T I O N!

Poetry is a bird…

HillenbrandWatercolor

Poetry is a bird
that lands gently.
Skittish, he’ll leave
if startled.
Pretend you’re not looking.
Admire him
out of the corner
of one eye
as he cleans
his plumage.
Hope that one
lost feather
lands on your page —
to become
a multi-colored
keeper.
